Top 100 Places to Work Methodology: Anyone can nominate a company for consideration — an employee, the CEO, or anyone who takes an interest. To enter, a company must agree to provide email access to each of its employees or to distribute surveys and return envelopes. At least 35 percent of a company’s employees must respond to the survey to qualify; employees remain anonymous throughout the process. In 2013, WorkplaceDynamics, the company responsible for running the surveys, weighted the responses of over 69,673 workers to determine the Top 100 Places to Work. WorkplaceDynamics was established in 2006 and partners with over 40 leading publishers such as the Boston Globe, Chicago Tribune, and Atlanta Journal-Constitution to produce regional Top Places to Work lists.
